The tour also reveals how Christmas was celebrated when it was the Pitcairns’ private home from the 1940s to the 1970s.

At the conclusion of the tour, visitors can view, at their own pace, the museum’s special exhibition, “Follow the Star: World Nativities,” being presented through Jan. 6.

Decorating Glencairn’s Great Hall is a Christmas tree with vintage and antique hand blown glass ornaments; beneath the tree is a pre-World War II Christmas village and Nativity scene.

Under the tree this year is an operating 1950s Lionel toy train donated by Louise Chardos of Hoboken, N.J.

Her brothers, Jim, Steve and Hank, collected the train and accessories as boys, setting them up annually beneath the family’s Christmas tree. The trains have been reconditioned and are maintained by Doug Wolff, owner of Joe’s Train Station in Feasterville.

The Epiphany program Jan. 6, the date which traditionally is celebrated as the day the Wise Men visited the Holy Family, closes the Nativity Festival.

Visitors will have one last opportunity to see the “Follow the Star” exhibition, tour Glencairn, and enjoy music, a family activity and light refreshments.

Glencairn Museum is part of the Bryn Athyn Historic District, a National Historic Landmark since 2008.

“Follow the Star: World Nativities” Exhibition is open Mondays through Saturdays 12 to 4:30 p.m. and Sunday, Jan. 6, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. during Epiphany Program
